Panasonic Lumix DMC-LZ3 Digital Camera

I bought this camera for my husband for his birthday. We had a Kodak digital that was very poor quality and I wouldn't consider buying another again. I did a lot of research on line about cameras and the Panasonic cameras were consistently well rated. I went to the store torn between the Panasonic and a HP. I played around with the display model and decided on this model. It was a great choice. The pictures are so sharp. The zoom is great and it really captures the detail. The quality of this camera versus our previous model are uncomparrable. The size is great. I do wish I could take a longer video with the camera. Besides that I have no complaints. We love it so much, We bought one for my parents for their Christmas. My parents are technologically challenged and this camera is so easy to use. They like to choose the picture they want printed. That is an option they have never had.
